Wishing for Quiet Waters

Descrizione dell’editore

When a Swiss company builds a water bottling plant in northern Wisconsin, it appears to be a great opportunity. It will bring dozens of jobs to an area that has been losing jobs for decades. But a group of local women wonder what impact large scale pumping will have on the local water supply. Their concerns put them in opposition to most of the town. Jessica likes the idea of jobs, but is concerned too about how some families might be impacted. When the bottling company president brings her to Switzerland to consult on the project, she doesn't know if she is his prisoner, or his lover.

Back in Wisconsin, arguments over the bottling plant get violent. Women protesters are attacked, and shots are fired into one of their homes. Jessica and the women protesters try to calm the situation, but tensions are high when the project is stopped, and then sold to a new company. It is up to Jessica to get the project restarted, and to help locals about to lose their water supply.
